Description Suggest change

P1: 5.5, ~30m?, ~7 bolts? ⭐
A slightly tough start getting up the undercut corner leads to easy slab and dirt climbing to the bolted anchor on a slopey dirt ledge.

Simul’ing P1-2 with 30m of rope works well.

P2: 5.7, ~30m? ~7 bolts? ⭐⭐⭐
From the belay, traverse left on the dirt ledge for 5m (good photo op) and then go straight up the corner/face for heavier bolted 5.7 climbing, and then end on some dirt slope meadows, belaying from a bolted anchor on a rock.

P3: 5.4, ~25m? ~4 bolts? ⭐
Continue up the meadows following various bolts to another bolted anchor on a rock in the dirt/meadows.

Simul'ing P3-4 with 30m of rope works well.

P4: 3rd class, ~30m? ~2 bolts? ⭐
Traverse left on the meadow dirt ledges, and continue traversing straight left. Near the end, stay left and lower of a different slightly higher and closer anchor, ending on a pretty decent dirt ledge.

P5:
Climb the left line into the white rock. Not the line straight ahead into a flake.

Located on the Victor Lake Wall. From the intersection of Hwy 1 and Hwy 23S, drive west on Hwy 1 for 13.1km. There is a gravel road on the north side of the hwy, directly below the wall. Drive 150m up the road and park at the end. Approach trail is next to parking, look for sign.
